StarJew Valley ep. 6: Shabbat Shalom! Let’s Play Stardew Valley!
Hello for anyone who is actually watching this on YouTube it’s time for more star Jew Valley where I play Star do Valley very jewishly and hay is again with us as our volunteer shabis today and I have another friend here for the kibit sing so hello hello all right it’s a
Thursday tomorrow’s weather is going to be a beautiful sunny day tomorrow I wasn’t able to build a scarecrow yet because I ran out of Hole but I I will build a scarecrow for the Rice yes rain means we don’t have to water our crops oh so um I did get an interesting answer and um I told it to you but I do want to share it regarding the issue of giving Pam a beer um so the question that you asked was on
Um can you give a person who has say an addiction issue um something that they request but basically contributes to that issue such as giving a person who has an alcohol addiction alcohol right okay so there is a commandment in the Torah that says you will not put a
Stumbling block in front of a blind person and this is used to mean uh by the way this is the exact same quote I got from three different Scholars that I asked um and this is used to mean that you will not do things that oh the
Flow’s ready uh wow uh that will it some in case want to do be houses love it um that will make it more likely that a person could do something uh harmful either to themselves or something sinful so um giving alcohol or drugs to a person who already has uh say addiction
Issues would fall into that category and although our character probably doesn’t completely know that yet I think our character might be getting a bit suspicious based on some of the interactions we’ve had like the fact that Pam spiked the punch at the eggfest and the fact that she’s at the
Bar every single night so yeah I’m going to make you a scarecrow thank you or I’m going to accidentally get confused and try to use a hoe instead of an where did I put my axe um I put it away instead of an axe to chop a
Tree cuz you know I am I’m good at that I’m leaving you a handful of tulips lovely thank you that way you have plenty to give Evelyn oh Granny likes tulips good to know Granny likes tulips and I should go see the mystical cut seen yes Community Center so I
Can oh so I had a question for you also um you apparently found three frozen geod do you want to break those open you’re welcome too okay I may I may well do that then um I think you want to save one of them I think demetrius’s uh bundle at the community
Center requires one really let me check that uh because fortunately I can check that now or I can water uh no it does not appear that it does so let me see what his does Require so it hasn’t been unlocked yet oh no you’re right and so you’re not going to see it you’re right I thought I’d unlocked it so yeah I will definitely save one um but I’m going to see what I need to make you a scarecrow uh I need more fiber okay I
Always need more fiber uh but yeah so the really interesting point and I think I mentioned this to you but um I want to share this in case other people are listening was that the level of uh not putting a stumbling block extends so far as to not leaving your door unlocked in
A neighborhood that is known for crime and this isn’t about protecting yourself uh this is actually about protecting a person who might be tempted to commit a crime from being able to commit it it’s technically a protection for the potential burglar for example which I thought was really Interesting someday I will figure out how to use an axe that day is not today all the salmon berries so many salmon berries okay I figured out how to use an axe but that wasn’t what I wanted to use there I’m used to playing this on the switch J and Vincent cut scene
Oo and I got more mix seeds yay and I can now make you a scarecrow thank you I will get right on That I of course did not check the witch of Endor this morning um but in your personal opinion uh what’s today a good day for um I think today would be fine for just about anything oh nice not I mean it’s not a great day for
Anything but it’s not a bad day for anything either I might I might go down to the mines also apparently I might be able to place torches inside the house another other lamps you can put inside the house yeah someone basically said that I was just clicking the wrong
Thing and I certainly have been known to click the wrong thing it would not be the first time oh my gosh it’s already 5:00 p.m. Goodness Me Maybe I won’t go mining today there are a lot of salmon berries yeah if you go south ooh to the forest
Okay that’s a good thing to do foraging is good I totally forgot to check out the um the cart lady oh also I got an ancient seed and I have a like an ancient seed that I can plant cuz I already donated the one so I got the ancient
Seed right yes but I have no idea if they have a season so I’m thinking I might wait till I have a greenhouse no plant it now plant it now plant it now but put it somewhere safe so you absolutely 100% will not accidentally destroy it okay because the ancient seed will die
In Winter it takes I think 30 days before it will have its first crop but then you will get a crop from it every week until winter oh my okay I have put it in a particular corner and I wonder if I can build fencing yet cuz that would be wise
In this case and it has a scarecrow near it uh yes good it does you absolutely do not want a crow to get it no I don’t um I’m I’m building a fence around it because because I can’t be trusted we know this okay I don’t have enough wood
To build a fence right now sprinkler it’s worth putting the sprinkler there um I I don’t have enough wood to build a fence right now so I’m going to see if I can get enough wood to build fence right now we have enough wood to build one
Post I will get War WI so my friend here with me had an excellent question which is and although I feel like I have the answer to this I am obligated to ask a rabbi if you are wearing fuzzy socks in a carpeted area and you make sparks on Shabbat are you violating
Shabbat and my thought is if you are intentionally rubbing your feet against the carpet to make sparks then yes but otherwise no and if I ask this question will I accidentally contribute to the Orthodox Jewish population buying uh low static socks these are my concerns okay I’ve built a
Gate I don’t know how much fencing I need we’ll start with that hope it’s enough because I I don’t want to just create a whole new situation whereby um I completely change Orthodox Jewish fashion there I have dropped some more wood in your chest oh lovely what I’m fencing in my ancient my
Ancient seat okay that was that was nerve-wracking I had to uh I had to um okay the ancient seed is officially fenced in but still so you can water it right there there is a gate there is a gate very good yes shall we go to bed let’s go to bed
So yeah the the socks question um I believe it’s a question of intent but I also have to wonder like cuz I have made a lot of mistakes before what about the intent when you buy the fuzzy sucks knowing that that will eventually happen see that’s my
Concern am I going to completely change the world of Jewish fashion uh because of this question I don’t think I have that power but I mean I did as you know once an Orthodox Jewish friend said to me you’re the reason why Judaism has weirdly specific rules and I’m I’m worried that
I’m contributing to this I believe in your power oh Lord good morning o I have Mail today’s probably a good day for you to go to the mines oh excellent jod needs a cauliflower okay um I don’t believe I have any cauliflower but I also know the wizard one day I’ll spap by the travel H ooh yes good plan and I will water
Things o our uh blue jazz is looking very lovely the only thing with going to the mine today is I have to get back before Sunset oh please bring my MH do we need a small goat milk or only large go for theity CER let me check uh
Large okay wait do we need go cheese though checking no we do not all right I will not buy the the small good milk from the traveling cart that makes sense once the flowers are bloomed you said they don’t need to be watered correct oh very
Cool um she also has a rare seed ooh shall I buy that uh yes please not super useful to day but it is going to be useful long term I watered the plant should I also get the coconut um I’m grabing the coconut the coconut is going to be necessary all
Right I’m going to I’m going to go into the mines um and try to earn us a living before shabas so I have to be very cautious about when I get back so that I can light candles getting the Wizard’s cut scene yeah going to drink his Forest
Potion I’m really hoping that the grubs are not actual bugs because that would not be kosher but um I’m just I’m trusting the wizard he looks like a rabbi so a rabbi with purple hair but he looks like a rabbi so I’m just going to going to hope
For the best okay what does the potion do it allows you to talk to the forest Spirits see lonus loves a great gift uh and in this case and lonus is the one who lives in the tent there my friend has not played stardew Valley before hence why I’m explaining
Things is it arguable in any way that the ability to talk with experts will be necessary for your help um you see the loophole I’m trying to aim for well I mean I think we’re just assuming that the wizard has made something that’s kosher I drank it already so that ship is
Sailed I want to get ooh coal yay I mean it’s for the pursuit of knowledge it is for the pursuit of knowledge and the wizard looks like a rabbi so I’m just imagining that he knows what he’s [Applause] making over here you are missing um hosan practice day
Oh that has got to be a good day I love when I just come into a level on the mines and there’s just a staircase right there And visible or bearing Rock because of that as pretty much as soon as shabat is over I will need to go and assist well I think that that is an excellent thing to go and assist with and I’m a little bit jealous communing with the trees oh uh you’re going on your first
Trip going on my first trip yeah the wizard I’m not entirely sure what’s happening there but I mean he’s interesting I can now decipher the true meaning of the junos roles so I’m okay with whatever that what ooh I have an area that is overrun with
Monsters I used to call that a vault and rad leges shoot I want I wish to eat let me run away for a moment so that I can oh my God let me eat my bar steps in peace there is a slime that has just been watching me my parsnips
That big slime doesn’t become smaller slime some Gamers will be just oh it absolutely became smaller slimes Lely and occasionally you get to see something which is very naus which is sometimes the slimes decide to um make little baby slimes on screen which is just not modest what time did you determine
Sundown was so I’ve been going with sundown at 7 but I think it’s actually 8 because that’s when what happens outside of your window changes so but either way I just made it to level 10 which is absolutely perfect for me to head back I got boots
Nice so I’m going to head back and start getting ready for shis the only thing I can do on chabas is talk to the characters [Applause] so grab my torches and I mean I can put them inside but I kind of like putting them outside yay y good job it are Pretty
Outside they are pretty outside um so now I’m just going to put my things in in the trunk can you turn the TV on before Sundown and watch it afterward no um you cannot I am getting very close to being able to build a furnace which is quite
Exciting and I can put on shoes which is nice and I can pet the cat if I can find the cat oh and actually one thing that I can do is even though it is Shabbat I can and I think this is a cool thing refill
The cat’s water bowl here’s the caty I love that I’m following you to the cat okay so yeah I love that I can refill the cat’s water uh water bowl because you absolutely can feed animals on shabat going to water myself there even though I don’t have something to eat
Today all right I’m going to head to bed that’s sounds good oh the cat’s on my bed now yes good kitty I think the kitty splits their time between houses I think the kitty has magical transporting Powers every Kitty does like this is true I have level three foraging yay and level one
Combat okay I can now craft bug steak but I cannot eat it I cannot turn on the TV I’m just going to wander well it’s a beautiful sunny day and so it’s perfect for going and talking to everyone I’m going to go and try to talk to everyone in Town and I’m going to try to not accidentally uh stab anyone because I’m still really working hard on getting the Controls most people aren’t awake Yet wonder if lius is you sleep um yes but he’s an early riser good morning lonus lus is Happy by himself he very lus has figured out what he likes in life and I respect that and he really appreciates your understanding Yeah which is why I’ve stopped saying that lonus is homeless he is Houseless because he very clearly has a home that he likes a lot Bo he is living the lifestyle he chooses I’m just waiting around for people to wake Up y’all are taking the day of rest thing too Seriously hey socializing is emotional labor it is this is true but please don’t make a retical argument on that or Saturdays are going to become really boring for Everyone Heyas yeah I know Robin’s house is in a beautiful area I agree oh good morning let me say hello to you oh Sebastian is busy thinking about something I didn’t hear me I love Sebastian because Sebastian loves frogs that’s all we need to know he’s he’s wonderful he loves frogs but Harvey loves
Pickles let’s see if compounds in the rizosphere contains fishing level of carbon 13 then oh sorry I was pondering some data and I didn’t notice you there okay you do you Demetrius Demetrius is an odd one he really is good morning Mario do you know my dad
Demetrius he’s a scientist I have a lot of fun helping out in the laboratory yeah I just had a talk with him in the kitchen about carbon 13 in the rizosphere he’s focused he’s very focused but yeah so Sebastian likes frogs but Harvey likees are you looking at rizosphere what is the rizosphere
It’s the narrow region of soil or substrate that is directly influenced by root secretions and Associated soil microorganisms known as the root microbiome thank you so carbon 13 would be involved in the carbon dating and trying to find out how old that soil is presumably wow that is actually really interesting
I’m just making sure to say hello to everyone uh yeah so Harvey this is this is Harvey and uh apparently he’s not here right now uh but he is a doctor which obviously huge plus but he really likes coffee and pickles which means he’s basically my soulmate haly wishes there was a mall
Here is that a wish you can grant eventually no children I smell like grass thank you Jazz Vincent do you have opinions oh Vincent your dad’s coming back soon I hope he brings you some toys I hope so too Vincent Shane wants to be left alone Shane is going through some stuff
Shane is going through some stuff I just want him to know I’m there for him and at least he’s helpfully setting boundaries he is he is setting boundaries Sam is playing guitar so I can’t bother him just yet can I nope that’s okay I’ll be friends with you Soon yes you want to get to at least three hearts with Sam the first year yeah I do you know anything in particular that he likes he is a very simple young man he likes joa Cola and loves pizza okay Cola and pizza these are things that I can I can
Find we should hang out yeah I don’t remember what else he loves but I do remember he loves pizza I mean I think I love pizza too he and maybe Shane are the only two who will accept joj Cola as a positive thing yeah yes I’m just enjoying a walk in the
Woods then I walk down to the beach this is a very chill game and I figure probably for the next few days I will just play and record because I will be in transit but once I am settled back home we can co- playay again soon oh
Elliott’s cabin is full of spiders and now Elliot is checked off of the potential Bachelor list wait what Elliot says you probably wouldn’t like my cabin it’s dark and full of spiders and that is why Elliot is officially off of my sh list yes yeah that’s a fair reason for you
Like not to marry him I mean he is a lovely person and uh that’s fine and all but I no what if he came to live with you would he bring the spiders with him is the question the eggs Evelyn has trouble seeing no he’s not bringing spider
Eggs oh Alex’s grandma made person of casserole but what out of uh deference for that and keeping spiders off of the farm has ra shes when when we get a play schedule that’s a bit more maybe regular together yeah I will do the traditional thing I will possibly marry Leia and raise goats
I mean it’s a tradition I say go for it it is definitely a tradition is this a tradition for you or oh uh I should note that on the path between my farm and town the the major path that goes east there are some worms sticking out of the ground next to the
Dandelion I will go check those out is is uh Maring Leia your tradition yeah I like her she gives me coffee in the mornings and is very happy with go cheese see there’s good people there’s good people in this town you can go for coffee and go cheese
I’m going for coffee and pickles it’s only fair oh it’s a library book oo someone buried a library book in the sand it was most definitely Vincent I would say so um which is the only reason I am not going to be very angry at him about it because he is a
Child and he does not know better yes so what I’ve decided is that 7:00 pre 7:00 is candle lighting and post 8:00 in Spring is when shabus is over because that’s when the the window goes dark so that sounds very reasonable I talked to a lot of people
Today wonder do I have do I have multiple hearts with anyone okay so far I’m only at one heart with folks but uh that’s okay can I talk to you what happens if I walk up to you no okay all right it’s been havdala we’re good that’s not what I wanted to
Do all right I know you have to do actual cool Jew stuff so let’s save the game and I will let you know when recording has stopped and you should go up and do awesome cool Jewish stuff thank you you have a wonderful evening and a safe trip thank you all
Right I will stop recording and of course if you’re watching this and enjoying this please give it a thumbs up if you’re watching and and not enjoying it feel free to leave trolling comments All
